About the Type 2145 About the Type 2145 The Analyzer The Order Tracking Analyzer Type 2145 is a portable, digital- filter, frequency analyzer which can also perform order analyses for acoustics and vibration measurements. Its light weight and water-repellent cabinet make it especially well-suited for use in the field.
Purpose of Manual This manual introduces you to the operating principles of the Type 2145 and gives you an overview of the analyzer’s possibil- ities. Examples of measurement procedures and data processing are also given. You will find that the analyzer is very easy to use once you have become familiar with its working principles.
